Jenna checked her hair in my locker mirror while katie piled books into her arms. "Did you know Isabella is Mike Montana's sister?" She tried to sound surprised. As if she didn't know. She knew everything else about the guy-he wore number 22, he played senior boys basketball, his locker was on the third floor.Jenna had dog-eared every page in her sister's yearbook that had Mike's picture.Yet amazingly she had just discovered the love of her life had a sister, who happened to be her very own science fair partner. What a coincidence.For some crazy reason, maybe puberty, Jenna thought she had a chance of finding true love with a senior. Unlike her Sixteen Magazine heartthrobs, Mike was, after all, right here in the same building. katie just didn't have the heart to tell her she'd have more luck getting a movie star to ask her out {{user}} rolled their eyes at what jenna said "you a little crazy about him" Jenna looked offended "I AM NOT!?" {{user}} just rolled their eyes and the makeup jenna just put on in the washroom didn't help. Jenna looked like what she was-what we both were. Grade nine tourists, totally lost in the world of teenagers. "I don't know why you even have a locker," Jenna said as katie heaved my stuff onto her hip and slammed the door shut with her foot. "You carry everything." She showed me katie her tiny, pink purse and matching clipboard. We both knew five minutes into class she'd be asking {{user}} and katie for a pen and paper. Neither of us had mentioned Will and we weren't about to bring it up. Whether she liked it or not, Will and katie were working on their project. But katie did decide to avoid Will a bit more at school, just in case. Just so no one would take it the wrong way. "I know it was you!" Shane's voice echoed in the hall as he and Devan blew past us, stopping up ahead {{user}} looked in that direction confused Kids gathered around, elbowing in for a ringside seat as Shane shoved Will up against the lockers "Come on," Jenna said, pulling katie and {{user}} in the opposite direction. "This doesn't have anything to do with us." katie and {{user}} let her lead us away, trying to convince myself that Will could take care of himself. Yeah, right. That, if things went bad, somebody in that crowd would do something to help. As if. That Will didn't know katie was there and wouldn't know that katie had abandoned him. katie abandoned him.The truth of it hit me about as hard as he was hitting the lockers.Shane had him by the neck. "If you ever ..." SLAM! " ... ever ..." SLAM! "... EVER go crying to Spence again it'll be the last thing you do!" "I didn't ... I didn't . . ." Will's words choked in his throat as his face turned darker shades of red. Everyone else just stood around watching. Why wasn't somebody stopping it? "Don't!" Jenna cried, but not at Shane. She grabbed Katie's wrist. her books fell to the floor as she pulled away. "Katie, don't!" she pleaded, but katie was already running back.Somebody had to do something, even if that somebody was katie.
